Me: This Character Is A Horrible Person.

"I didn't have it in myself to go with grace."

If there is one song that accurately portrays the downfall and tragedy of their friendship, it's this one.

"It's ridiculous to say, 'I don't care what anyone says about me,' because that's not possible. But you can decide whose opinions matter more and whose opinions you put more weight on"

- Taylor Swift -

every time you see someone posting about some sort of conspiracy theory you have to ask them what their thoughts on jews are because 9 times out of 10 they'll go into an absolutely deranged rant about lizard people turning kids trans to take down trump and that's why you can't trust the average conspiracy nut

I think there is a lot of disconnect that goyim have between their actions and how it impacts jews.

What I mean by this is calling for/doing things in which the direct action is not antisemetic, but the result of the action is. For example;

Motivation: "Hillel is run by zionists'

Action: calling for hillel to be removed from all universities

Result: the main organization which helps jews have a community at university as well as helps handle antisemitism jewish students face, is now gone. Jews have no guaranteed community on campus unless students who are busy studying can take on the work load of running it. They also now have to find a local rabbi for the group and also have no extra protection against antisemitism.

(This is all ignoring that hillel doesn't even promote violence and is being targeted simply for being a Jewish organization on campus)

Motivation: "we want to make zionists lives as hard as possible"

Action: Targeting people who they assume are zionists

Result: because you cannot tell if someone is a zionist unless you ask them their opinions on Israel and Palestine, a lot of jews get targeted for simply being jewish because antizionists view a lot of things which are originally jewish as inherently Israeli and therefore is an admittance of zionism. For those who try to verbally clarify if a jew is a zionist, usually they end up harassing jews to give their opinion on Israel and Palestine, even though they are not entitled to jews or anyone's opinion on anything.

(This is ignoring that anything inherently Israeli is bad as that's also false)

Just because your direct action is not antisemetic, doesn't mean the result of your action isn't, and that still makes your action antisemetic.

My hottest take of all is that we should have empathy for everyone

When will we stop treating women's reactions to offenses as worse than the offenses themselves?

greetings;

I came upon your page recently, and in a very short time have learned a lot about Jewish culture, Jewish history, and the challenges that Jewish people face. I want to express my sincere appreciation. I am a non-Jew, and the more I learn, the more eager I am to actively engage/disrupt anti-semitism when it happens - as best I can. I am so excited to support you!

Thank you for maintaining this page.

Thank you so much! When I originally started this account I imagined my audience would be only other Jews, and I kinda thought it would be the community kvetching and kvelling about different things the community faces and goes through. I ended up finding that a lot of gentiles actually are interested in learning about Judaism, which was really surprising and encouraging. So thank you too!
